By Dave Del Grande
@DaveDelGrande
TIP OF THE DAY
Always consider the highest-priced pitcher.
Consider, I said. Not blindly embrace.
Asstated Monday, I am no longer opposed to diving in big-time on pitchers
at FantasyAces. And Tuesday’s No. 2 on the salary charts, the Mets’ Jacob deGrom (FantasyAces $7,520) is an easy choice.
The question is: Do I pair him with the only guy more costly, the Pirates’ Gerrit Cole (FantasyAces $7,750)?
There are several decent alternatives at a variety of prices. In the
past, I would have recommended filling in a hitting lineup around
deGrom, then seeing how much money is left for a second pitcher.
If you had a lot, then Cole and the Cardinals’ Michael Wacha (FantasyAces $7,100) would be worth considering.
If you could only afford a mid-priced guy, no problem. The Blue Jays’ Mark Buehrle (FantasyAces $5,850), Giants’ Chris Heston (FantasyAces $5,750) and Rays’ Nate Karns (FantasyAces $5,550) have intriguing matchups.
And there’s even a guy near the bottom of the salary charts — the Padres’ Odrisamer Despaigne (FantasyAces $5,000) — who could be a good fit based on his success against the Giants.
Alas, that’s not how I play the game anymore. I focus on pitchers first, and that gets me back to the top of the charts.
So, what about Cole?
Gotta say: I don’t like him. I mean, not in this matchup.
TheRoyals hit righties well (fifth-best season OPS, .750) and nobody has
scored more runs (22) since the All-Star break. Plus, Cole hasn’t been
great in his two starts this month (3.00 ERA).
Frankly, Wacha is a better option. His opponent is far weaker. The White
Sox are 25th in OPS against right-handers (.673) and they’ve scored
half as many runs as the Royals since the break (11).
Wacha’s season splits are on par with Cole, and his price is $650 less.
Actually, I really don’t care about the price. I just want the best pitcher with the best matchup.
Tuesday, that’s Wacha.
MUST PLAY
Troy Tulowitzki, Rockies shortstop (FantasyAces $6,000).
It’s going to be a challenge to fit a $6,000 hitter in with two high-priced pitchers. But it’s a challenge worth taking.This guy is on one of his hot streaks, and that makes him Priority 1 (among hitters) if the Rockies are at home.
Not only is this game at Coors Field, but the Rockies will be facing a left-hander (Matt Harrison) whose issues I documented when he made his season debut before the break.
He lived up to his not-ready-for-primetime billing that night, giving up
six runs, five hits, five RBIs and two walks to the 16 right-handed
hitters he faced.
Good luck with Tulowitzki, who is 5-for-9 with two home runs since the All-Star break.
MUST AVOID
Adrian Gonzalez, Dodgers first baseman (FantasyAces $5,650).
Ifyou want to quibble and say Gonzalez is even hotter than the
aforementioned Troy Tulowitzki, I won’t debate it. He is 9-for-16 with
three home runs since the All-Star break, after all.
On the surface, you’d think Gonzalez would have a nice opportunity to pad those stats against the Braves’ Alex Wood,
who doesn’t pitch well at home (1.70 WHIP, highest among Tuesday’s
starters) and hasn’t been in good form anywhere in July (8.49 ERA).
But most of the damage against Wood has been done by right-handed
hitters, which Gonzalez isn’t. As his .623 OPS indicates, Wood is one of
those lefties who gets lefties out.
Want further proof? Consider this: Wood has faced Gonzalez nine times in
his career. He’s struck him out on four of those occasions, while
giving up a lone single in the other five at-bats.
It’s history vs. hot here, and I’m siding with history.
HISTORY LESSON
Speaking of one-side matchups …
Giants catcher Buster Posey (FantasyAces $5,650) has faced Padres right-hander Odrisamer Despaigne 12 times in his career.
Would you believe he’s gone 10-for-12 with four home runs?
Man, you’re gullible.
Actually, Posey has NEVER gotten a hit off the young rival. Yep, 0-for-12.
It’s part of Despaigne’s amazing early success against the Giants, whose
current roster has a cumulative .152 batting average against him in a
decent sample size (79 at-bats).
That’s why I mentioned Despaigne earlier when discussing pitching
options. He certainly is worth considering, at home, at the modest price
of $5,000.
Hey, if that’s what it takes to get Troy Tulowitzki in your lineup …
TODAY’S STACK PACK
Rangers vs. Rockies right-hander Kyle Kendrick.
Pick a high-scoring game. Any game other than the Rangers and Rockies. That’s mine.
Here’s a prediction: There will be twice as many runs scored in my game as in yours.
Bold? Perhaps. But not so bold when you look at the matchups.
I’ve already touched upon Rangers starter Matt Harrison. Granted, he’s
only pitched once. But he’s got a 13.50 ERA … and it’s about to go up.
Kendrick hasn’t been nearly that bad this season in a much larger sample
size. But it’s fair to say he’s been consistently less-than-mediocre.
He doesn’t get batters out on either side of the plate (.932 OPS vs.
lefties, .856 vs. righties) and, predictably, he’s got the only home
WHIP (1.57) that rivals the aforementioned Alex Wood among Tuesday’s
starters.
Has Kendrick faced the Rangers before? Glad you asked.
Outfielders Shin-Soo Choo (FantasyAces $4,600) and Josh Hamilton (FantasyAces $4,750), first baseman Mitch Moreland (FantasyAces $4,750) and designated hitter Prince Fielder (FantasyAces $5,600) each has a lifetime OPS of 1.200 or better against him.
High prices are going to be an issue here in stacking these guys. You also need to consider second baseman Rougned Odor (FantasyAces $4,600), who has seven hits, including two triples and a homer, since the All-Star break.
Choo, with two home runs in 11 career at-bats against Kendrick, would be my first choice.
ULTIMATE SLEEPER
Austin Barnes, Dodgers catcher (FantasyAces $3,000).
There is absolutely no reason to spend big bucks on a catcher Tuesday.Two guys in the $4,000 range — the Orioles’ Caleb Joseph (FantasyAces $4,000), who has a brief but powerful history against the Yankees’ Nate Eovaldi, and the Rockies’ Michael McKenry (FantasyAces $4,250), a live body up against the aforementioned Matt Harrison — would suffice.
But Barnes is an even better bargain.
The Dodgers have catcher issues with A.J. Ellis on the disabled list and Yasmani Grandal out at least until Wednesday while recuperating from a concussion.
That opened the door for Barnes to start Monday, and he responded with two hits.
Now he’s up against a lefty (Alex Wood) who struggles with righties. It’s an even more promising opportunity than Monday.
When you’re spending big bucks on pitchers and your shortstop, it’s nice
to get at least one complementary guy basically for free.
INJURY ALERT
Getting a modestly-priced Cardinals right-handed hitter or two in your lineup against White Sox lefty Carlos Rodon would seem like a good idea, especially given his .817 OPS against righties.
Outfielder Randal Grichuk (FantasyAces $4,500) would be one such option.
Fellow outfielder Peter Bourjos (FantasyAces $3,650) would be an even bigger bargain if he gets the start.
The Cardinals held outfielder Jason Heyward out of Sunday’s
starting lineup because of a leg injury, and there’s really no rush to
get the left-handed hitter back in there against the lefty Rodon.
With Tommy Pham having recently been demoted back to Triple-A, that pretty much leaves Bourjos as the logical replacement.
He did just fine in Heyward’s place Sunday, getting on base four times
in seven plate appearances. And he’s flashed some power against lefties,
having hit two homers in 54 at-bats.
Check the lineups, and I’d recommend Grichuk first. But if that extra
$850 in savings pushes you toward Bourjos, I wouldn’t hesitate to pull
that trigger.

Daily Fantasy Sports: DraftTeam holds a $2,000 MLB Tuesday Triple Play contest every week - Handicappers Hideaway
Happy Tuesday, everyone. What could be happy about a Tuesday? Simple. DraftTeam holds a $2,000 MLB Tuesday Triple Play contest
every week, so if that doesn’t alter your perception of this day of the
week, we don’t know what would. What’s that? Free beer? Well, yes, we
suppose that would work, too.
Let’s get you set for play on Tuesday, July 21.
Just over a month ago, we advised picking up Yankee 3B Alex Rodriguez
($10,583) as he needed just one more hit to join the 3,000-hit club.
Sure enough, he homered that night to hit the mark. On Tuesday, however,
we’re going to avoid A-Rod. He came out of the break bashing (see video
below), but is now just 1-for-8 with five Ks in the last two games.
More importantly, Rodriguez has always struggled against Baltimore SP
Wei-Yin Chen (2-for-13 with five strikeouts). Yes, ARoid is enjoying a
tremendous comeback season, but if you’re looking for a 3B for Tuesday,
spend a bit more and get Kyle Seager ($11,363). You can thank us
tomorrow.
At the beginning of the season, we talked about how Washington SS Ian
Desmond ($4,745) was the only big leaguer with three straight 20-20
seasons and wondered what he had planned for 2015, the final season of
his contract. Well, this was obviously not what he had in mind. We’re
past the 90-game mark now and Desmond has yet to reach double digits in
homers or steals while his batting average has plummeted to career worst
levels as he’s struggled to hit his way out of a wet paper bag.
Yet, we are going to recommend him as a sneaky cheap option. Yes,
Desmond has to face the nasty Jacob DeGrom, but we like the life his bat
showed Monday as he smoked a two-run dinger and singled to snap a
3-for-44 skid. Desmond is someone that’s feasted on Mets pitching at
Nationals Park (.339 in the last 16 games there), so take that into
consideration as well.
DFS Notes
- Tonight marks the MLB debut of SP Aaron Nola ($14,693), one of the
top prospects for the Phillies. The seventh overall pick from last year
has soared through the minors very quickly, and we like his matchup
tonight (vs. TB). - Seattle SP Taijuan Walker ($19,142) was on a major roll as July
began, but in his last two starts the bubble has burst (11 IP, 13 hits,
12 runs, 11 ER, 3 HR). His ERA has risen a half a run based on this pair
of duds. - Los Angeles Dodgers SP Clayton Kershaw (next scheduled to pitch
Thursday), was looking somewhat human in late-June, but is really
rounding into form since with just two earned runs allowed over his last
31 innings.
